Pet care experience
When caring for your pet I always rely on patience, intuition, and respect. Most importantly, I aim to gain your pet's trust. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality, as no two individuals are alike. To me, working for Rover is not only an opportunity to provide top-quality pet care but also a chance to make new furry friends and to ensure your pet is in good hands. I have experience caring for a range of animals including dogs, cats, chickens, and aquatic pets. My professional experience includes volunteer work for the Chittenden County Humane Society where I was responsible for morning/afternoon care and feeding, animal socialization, and dog walking. Additionally, have worked as a pet sitter/dog walker since 2015, serving several families in my neighborhood as well as friends and co-workers. I hold two master’s degrees in biology with concentrations in animal behavior and ecology truly love spending my time with animals. Please feel free to be in touch if I may be the right fit for you and your pet!
Reviews
Vivien is super reliable and always takes great care of our pup!
Vivien did an excellent job with our (sometimes) anxious senior dog. Would definitely recommend!
Vivien took excellent care of our kitten while we were away for a long weekend. She provided comprehensive updates along with pictures to ease our worrying. We would highly recommend Vivien for your pet sitting needs!!
Our puppy loves Vivien! It’s a special treat for Bailey to have a Vivien day. And we appreciate her calm and friendly vibes, punctuality, and love for Bailey.

Safety, trust & environment
While I'm caring for your pet I make sure to keep them as comfortable as possible by staying on their normal schedule (e.g., feeding times, walks, playtime, etc.). I also pay close attention to their safety by following all rules outlined by you as their owner (e.g., off leash vs. on leash, reactivity toward other dogs/animals, etc.).
Information Vivien E. would like to know about your pet
I rely on clear communication between myself and the pet owner. I can provide the best care when we discuss your pet’s temperament, likes and dislikes, and routine. Additionally, I rely on observation and supervision to ensure their safety and well-being. I do not have any breed preferences.
A typical day
I enjoy taking dogs on frequent walks throughout neighborhoods and parks. I'm also happy to take them on runs and hikes if these are activities they enjoy. During the summer months all water-loving dogs are welcome to join me at the lake as well! I also like to provide plenty of quality time, filled with many belly rubs and play with their favorite toys.
